Argumento
In 'The Blue Lagoon', two children, Richard and Emmeline, survive a shipwreck along with a ship's cook named Paddy Button. They find themselves stranded on an uncharted tropical island. Over time, Paddy teaches them survival skills until one night, after consuming rum found on the island, he drowns accidentally. Left alone, Richard and Emmeline grow up together, building a home and learning to live off the land. As they mature into teenagers, their feelings for each other become complicated, leading to arguments and tension between them. When a ship passes by the island, Emmeline fails to light the signal fire as promised, causing Richard to expel her from their shared home. After finding an injured Emmeline later, Richard realizes his true feelings for her. Nature takes its course, and they eventually consummate their relationship, leading to Emmeline becoming pregnant. The story ends with the couple embracing their new life together on the island.
